“@tunguz He is just plain wrong. Almost the entire founding team of @SpaceX was over 30. Over half of the founding team of Tesla was too.”

“@thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @roscosmos @northropgrumman @ulalaunch @torybruno @isro @RocketLab Actually, 41 tons for SpaceX in Q3 & aiming for 80 tons in Q4. That said, China launch mass to orbit is extremely impressive.”

“@WholeMarsBlog We are waiting for regulatory approval”

“@WholeMarsBlog @jimfarley98 @mrlevine FSD Beta 9.2 is actually not great imo, but Autopilot/AI team is rallying to improve as fast as possible. We’re trying to have a single stack for both highway & city streets, but it requires massive NN retraining.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Cocaine does not meet that test”

“@WholeMarsBlog @NASASpaceflight @BBCAmos There is a reason no fully reusable orbital rocket has been built – it’s an insanely hard problem. Moreover, it must be rapidly & completely reusable (like an airplane). This is the only way to make life multiplanetary. Efficiencies of scale is why Starship is so large.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Berlin will use 4680 cell with structural battery pack & front & rear single piece castings. Also, a new paint system. Lot of new technology will happen in Berlin, which means significant production risk. Fremont & Shanghai will transition in ~2 years when new tech is proven.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Well said”

“@CSI_Starbase Agreed, we recently made this change & many others. An intense effort is underway to achieve robust engine containment in case of RUD to protect booster, other engines & launch ring.”

“@TJ_Cooney Wow, 2011 seems like eons ago! With fairing recovery, Falcon is ~80% reusable, but reflight takes several days & requires boats. Starship will be fully reusable with booster reflight possible every few hours & ship reflight every 8 hours. No boats needed.”

“@thesheetztweetz Full & rapid reusability is the holy grail of orbital rocketry”

“@WholeMarsBlog FSD/AI team is doing great work. Will get superhuman good in upcoming releases. Note, we will slow down upload rate of releases going forward. First from QA fleet to employee cars for a day, then slowly releasing at ~1000 cars/hr to external beta on Friday aft.”

“@blueskykites @Tesla @SpaceX @mayemusk @WholeMarsBlog @28delayslater @JohnnaCrider1 @Kristennetten @SirineAti @GailAlfarATX @DimaZeniuk @bevedoni @RationalEtienne @ashleevance @adamhoov @klwtts @RenataKonkoly For a couple of months, but, yeah, that looks like the place. Does Mark still live there?”

“@WholeMarsBlog Real-world validation & billions of miles of real-world training are what will make FSD superhuman”

“@oneunderscore__ @ParkerMolloy @2sunsky @ashleyfeinberg You’re welcome to come by SpaceX, but please stop assuming I’m against all journalists. This is not true. Something needs to be done to improve public trust in media.”

“@WholeMarsBlog The Tesla AI predictions are swiftly becoming superhuman – its guesses for what it can’t see well feel like ESP. It has a vastly larger training set than any human & thinks only about driving.”

“@TeslaHype @GailAlfarATX Starship is intended to carry a lot of people on tens of thousands of flights, so needs to be extremely reliable over time. It will be.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Designing in the cameras, liquid-cooled Tesla computer (always go liquid-cooled!) and high security internet gateway will probably take major car companies about three years. Might as well start now! We want to be helpful, as we were with making our patents available for free,…”

“@yousuck2020 @SpaceX That’s the first BFR airframe/tank barrel section made of a new carbon fiber material”

“@WallStreetMav I’m just trying to add some beauty to my feed in between politics, AI, cars & Mars 😂”

“@TitterDaily @WholeMarsBlog Twitter is an accelerant for X”

“@raines1220 LiDAR also does not work well in snow, rain or dust due to reflection scatter. That’s why Waymos stop working in any heavy precipitation. As I have said many times, there is a role for LiDAR in some circumstances and I personally oversaw the development of LiDAR for the SpaceX”

“@WholeMarsBlog @Gfilche There will be lots of technical detail & cool hardware demos”

“RT @cb_doge: BREAKING: SpaceX is deploying Starlink kits to aid communication in the affected regions in Thailand and Myanmar. https://t.co…”

“@Erdayastronaut @CopSub In our experience, COPV gain/pain flattens out above 6000 psi and is <1 above 10,000 psi, unless volume constrained like Dragon. Heating from pressurization & cooling from depressurization also become major problems at very high pressure.”

“@GailAlfarATX Starship has 33 engines! If an engine failure is isolated, then many engines greatly increases reliability (Starship only loses <3% of thrust). If not, then reliability is terrible. The difference is at least 2 orders of magnitude.”

“@teslaownersSV @BillyM2k @WholeMarsBlog It sure is hard to find a news source that’s accurate, relevant & not totally depressing! Old-school version of The Economist & Jon Stewart Daily Show / Colbert Report were great.”

“@PPathole @Rainmaker1973 The amazing part will be having an orbital rocket that is fully & rapidly reusable with any payload at all! Everyone else gave up when they realized that their fully reusable payload<0. We still have a long way to go.”

“@DimaZeniuk @SpaceX @SirineAti @captainarve @andst7 @WholeMarsBlog @EvasTeslaSPlaid @GailAlfarATX @JaneidyEve @TeslaAIBot @1stMarsColonist And we need to add 3 more Raptor Vacuum engines, because it’s inevitable”

“RT @Starlink: Starlink will soon be available on British Airways, Aer Lingus, Iberia, Level and Vueling aircraft. Stream, game, work and m…”

“@rustyrockets @shellenberger @mtaibbi @rumblevideo Good question”

“@GailAlfarATX @WholeMarsBlog Actually, April 7th”

“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX All of that and more. We’re doing a broad review of launch site, propulsion, structures, avionics, range & regulatory constraints this weekend. I will also be at the Cape next week to review hardware in person.”

“@TaiigerBlue @Tesla @omarsultan @pauljamil @WholeMarsBlog @slye @JohnnaCrider1 @teslaownersSV @tesla_raj @Manic_Marge It’s awesome”

“@WeDragonSlayers Flesh without Blood & Kill V Maim on Art Angels album https://t.co/MycGWvbYGk https://open.spotify.com/album/5hB4jVN4ZHpubyiMmW81K1?si=w_40XQKaQeOx5HfdWR4-0Q”

“@spideycyp_155 @FedorovMykhailo @SpaceX There are some active terminals”

“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Aim for zero velocity just above surface & fall. You won’t fall fast.”

“@ajtourville @SpaceX A truly reusable orbital-entry-class heat shield is the single biggest technology problem remaining”

“@cnunezimages A super reliable, light, reusable heat shield is the biggest technical challenge remaining for Starship”

“The AEI meeting wasn't secret and I was only there for a few hours to talk about Mars and sustainable energy. Nothing to do with Trump.”

“Can't wait to see all three cores of Falcon Heavy come back for landings! First two will be almost simultaneous. https://t.co/ryMiewZM4L http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/space/go-for-launch/os-spacex-landing-pads-space-coast-20160718-story.html”

“@ConfuEth @WholeMarsBlog @StuartZuckerma1 Tesla AI/Autopilot could probably beat the best human around a track already. Eventually, it really won’t be a contest at all. Human reflexes cannot match machines.”

“Aiming for Falcon rocket static fire at Cape Canaveral on the 16th and launch about three days later”

“@SciGuySpace It’s a step in the right direction, but they should really aim for full reusability by 2026. Larger rocket would also make sense for literal economies of scale. Goal should be to minimize cost per useful ton to orbit or it will at best serve a niche market.”

“@torybruno Your company said the exact opposite in 2014 when it got a sole-source, uncompeted $11B DoD launch contract. https://t.co/Abd5sWhZDt In any event, expendable rockets are as relevant to the future as expendable aircraft. Rapidly reusable rockets are all that matter. https://www.cbsnews.com/network/news/space/home/spacenews/files/042914_ula_blockbuy.html”

“@iamtomnash The Fox anchor is talking utter nonsense. I challenged Putin to a physical fight over Ukraine and SpaceX and provided massive support to Ukraine, as the Ukrainian government has repeatedly acknowledged.”

“@DimaZeniuk Slightly different variants of stainless alloys are used in the rocket and truck, but pretty close overall”

“@Kristennetten @StianWalgermo @Tesla @ARKInvest @WholeMarsBlog @alex_avoigt @Teslarati @TeslaPodcast @mortenlund89 I was in the Berlin paint shop talking to the team on my last visit. It’s gonna be great! But bear in mind that it takes about a year for a new factory to reach volume production. Production is super hard work, which is why I have great respect for those who do it.”

“@rmcentush Starship could deliver 100GW/year to high Earth orbit within 4 to 5 years if we can solve the other parts of the equation. 100TW/year is possible from a lunar base producing solar-powered AI satellites locally and accelerating them to escape velocity with a mass driver.”
